Car Paints and Paint Systems for Cars and Motorcycles

Most new cars leave the factory in a 2K car paint finish. However, metallic colours and some cars new solid colours are base-coat and clear. 2K means 2 components are mixed together i.e. paint and hardener, then either air dried or baked. The metallic base-coats are made in polyester and are applied after having added thinners, then the lacquer is sprayed on separately - the lacquer is 2K. We supply all colours, 2K primers, plastic primers and soft face additives, which are needed to repair all those plastic parts which are now being used on modern cars. Also all modern sealing systems for wind screen and car body joints are also available.
